 Replying to [comment:5 johnbillion]:
 > I think we'd be better off adding a filter to the initial query SQL,
 rather than applying a filter to the post IDs after the query runs. Unless
 there is a use case for filtering the post IDs array rather than the SQL?

 I'd really like to see a filter on $join / $where pieces so I can add
 custom taxonomy support or whatever else I might want to.

 Although, I'm just going to throw this out there.. I have no idea why this
 couldn't easily use a get_posts with 'fields' => 'ids' and change all of
 the manual SQL to utilize WP_Query args, with a filter on the args before
 they go into WP_Query.

 I know #22435 proposes some more sweeping changes for abstraction and
 cleanup, but WP_Query would ultimately be the most flexible option for
 this as a solution to the overall problem (not being able to control the
 Post IDs that get sent to the export output)
